Chapter 888: Drinking with the Elders
"Hahaha, Xiao Fan, don't blame your father, he had to do it as a last resort in the past few years, I think if he has a little way, he won't leave you here. ”
"I understand what you're saying, and I've never blamed my parents for anything. You know, I couldn't be happier to know that my dad was back, and I just thought that no matter how much I exchanged things with me, I wouldn't let my mom and dad leave me again. ”
"Good boy, good boy. ”
The old man patted Li Fan's shoulder softly, and after finishing speaking, he took out a bottle of wine from under the table, handed it to Li Fan, and said, "Come, it's open, I haven't drunk it for a long time, I'm happy today, drink two glasses with me." ”
With a wry smile, he took the bottle of wine without any label, Li Fan didn't dare to really open the wine and let the old man drink it.
Although the old man's spirit seems to be very good, Li Fan feels that he will definitely not be vulgar in the old man.
"Forget it! The more you drink this thing, the thirstier you get, just drink some plain water. ”
Li Fan was about to put the wine bottle back, but the old man's heavy eyebrows were raised: "What's the matter?"
"Hurry up. ”
Under the old man's undoubted voice, Li Fan still couldn't beat the old man after all, and poured a shallow cup into the cup.
Seeing this, the old man didn't say much.
He knew his physical condition, he couldn't touch things like cigarettes and alcohol, and if he hadn't had a good chat with Li Fan today, he wouldn't have joked about his body.
Fortunately, it was this kind of wine specially prepared for him, otherwise the old man would not dare to drink it.
Little by little, he sipped the wine in his glass, and the old man's memories also opened.
This night, for those who are asleep, is very short, and it passes as soon as the eyes open and close.
This night was a long time for Lu Cheng and the others who were waiting outside the door.
They didn't know what Li Fan and the old man were talking about inside, and they didn't know how long it had been.
They didn't dare to enter the door to disturb the chat between the old man and Li Fan, nor did they dare to leave casually, a few sleepy and tired people stood outside the door all night, until there was a soft click on the door, Lu Chengcai, who was already standing outside the door and was about to fall asleep, was full of excitement, and he was busy standing up straight, watching the door being opened little by little.
With Li Fan's support, the two of them slowly walked out of the room.
After a night of chatting, Li Fan's spirit still looked the same, and the elder did have some sleepy eyes.
"Elder, are you alright?"
Liu Hui took the initiative to walk to the right side of the elder and helped the elder who was still a little unconscious.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's been a long time since I've slept so soundly. ”
Shaking his head gently, a warm smile appeared on the elder's face, after drinking a glass of wine last night, the old man who was not strong enough to drink fell into a deep sleep, and Li Fan stayed by his side all night.
Perhaps because of the alcohol, the old man who didn't think about those troubles slept very sweetly, and now he wakes up and his spirits are much better.
"Okay, if there's nothing to do, I'll go first, you kid have to remember what I told you last night, take it easy, don't be too impulsive. ”
After a few words of advice to Li Fan, the old man left under the escort of his bodyguards.
Looking at the old man's back, for some reason, Li Fan suddenly sighed lightly.
"Let's go, I'll send you back. Liu Hui walked up and said to Li Fan.
Li Fan nodded, and after saying goodbye to Lu Cheng, he followed Liu Hui into the car.
"What about Raphael?"
"I sent him back first, and there were some things that were inconvenient for him to listen to. ”
Li Fan nodded, he was already mentally prepared for what Liu Hui was going to say.
"I'm going to tell you, the elder must have told you something last night. Liu Hui asked.
Li Fan shook his head: "No, the elder just told me last night that there was something I needed to contribute, and the others didn't say anything to me, and most of the time they chatted with me about family matters." ”
Li Fan told the truth, but Liu Hui looked at Li Fan in even more surprise.
How precious the elder's time is, many people can't imagine it, and Li Fan is worth the elder's time to talk about family affairs, which is much more surprising to him than talking directly to Li Fan about the task.
It seems that Li Fan's relationship with the elder is even better than he imagined, Liu Hui thought secretly in his heart.
Before he knew it, his attitude was even better.
Liu Hui lowered his voice and moved slowly: "The Qiu family in Nanjiang, what kind of martial arts conference is going to be held recently, and a lot of martial artists have been invited to participate, and they are worried that something will happen, so they want to send someone over to see the situation." ”
"There are so many of you, and you can't send a person to check the situation?" Li Fan suddenly stopped.
The people under Liu Hui are distributed all over the country, not to mention thousands of people, such a huge crowd, but he has to find Li Fan to check the situation.
Li Fan, who originally thought that something big had happened, was a little disapprehensive after hearing that he was just going to see the situation of a martial arts conference.
After all, it is not unusual for martial arts tournaments like this to be held by various organizations every year.
And the elder didn't tell him what was the matter last night, Liu Hui, this kid wouldn't be fooling him with chicken feathers as an arrow, right?
Liu Hui saw Li Fan's disapproving expression, and he was also a little anxious.
He went around in circles to find Li Fan, if it was really so simple to investigate the situation, he wouldn't have to rush so much, but if he wanted him to say anything harmful, he really didn't seem to know anything.
After all, it was indeed the elder who assigned him this task, and when he was given the task at that time, he only said that Li Fan must be allowed to pass, but he didn't mention anything else.
I don't know why the elder didn't tell Li Fan last night, but asked him to explain to Li Fan today.
After thinking for a while, Liu Hui explained: "Our people, almost everyone has records in those sect families, and I can't be sure if there are people from them in my people, if we send people over ourselves, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be known in advance, so that the other party will be prepared, so this candidate, it is best to have someone who is not a supernumerary." ”
Looking at Liu Hui's solemn expression, Li Fan couldn't help but be a little speechless: "Why are you so much like Mission Impossible?
"It's really Mission Impossible. Liu Hui smiled bitterly: "You have been in this circle for too short a time, and you don't know the situation of domestic martial arts." ”
"A few years ago, because the above was worried that those who practiced martial arts would cause trouble and it would be inconvenient to manage, they began to deliberately control the domestic martial artists, and at the same time suppressed those inherited sectarian families, and even established a department dedicated to managing this aspect - Daxia Longque.
Although the effect of such large-scale suppression is remarkable, the backlash is also amazing. ”
